Silver Reproduction Civil War Calvary Saber / Pirate Sword

Description: This is a used item. Please see photos for ultimate final condition of the item. This sword is a beautiful reproduction of the older and simpler times. This sword has striking similarities to the old Model 1860 Union Cavalry Officer's Saber, however it has a few additions and flourishing details that make it not quite an exact copy or replica. There is additional material within the guard section that you don't see on most of the Civil War sabers. With a modest curve to it, this saber captures the imagination of what it could have been like on the battlefield or the high seas. The sheath for the blade is put together using hand-fit components and modern hardware. There is a fair amount of pitting or discoloration to the silver finish of the top and bottom metal parts of the sheath, where a shiny coating was once applied. The exterior of the sheath has a nice black leather wrap, with some stitching to seal the edges. There's a wrinkle or two, but you won't see it unless you're looking for it. The interior of the sheath has some nice cloth pieces inserted to aid in fitting the blade snugly inside, while damping the drop from the fall of the blade. The guard has a beautiful floral and forestry pattern to it, with a stunning high polish silver look. The nice thin hand guard lends to a nice light-weight feel to the saber. Adding to the elegance of this saber is the twisted wire wrapped leather handle. The leather is in great condition, with no rips, tears, or peels. The wire is continuous with no breaks, and goes directly into the guard and pommel sections. The blade does need sharpened if you intend to use it for its true purpose. The blade only has one marking - "China". No indications are made for blade material. While not everything can be "Made in USA" with striking quality, this "Made in China" item was done so with love. It is a great piece that will live happily with you for quite a long time, and will be the talking piece of your mantle, office, man-cave, or living room.
